THE VINTON RECORD.
Mo A Kill UIl, OllIO,
THURSDAY. FEU. 27. 1873.
A Superintendent for the Infirmary
Architect.
We understand that the ring
attempt to Llind the public to
a knowledge of the solt thing
they have on the people in the
Infirmary job by saying that
Mr. Martin, one of tne Com
missioners, whom they repre
sent to be a first class niechan.
ic is to oversee the work. We
pass by the fact that these
same parties, when Mr. Martin
was a candidate for nomina
tion, was represented by them
to be a kind of a cipher who
lived down in Knox. That
suited their purpose then th
other now. But why 6hould
the people now pay Mr. Martin
$3 per day to superintend the
work and see that the county
is not cheated, when they have
already paid an "architect" for
making plans, drawings and
epeoiiTcaUbns,wliich if they
are such as would be furnished
by an architect would prevent
any chance at cheating? It
need only be examined when
the work was complete to see
whether the plana and specifi
cations had been complied
with. And suppose any ques
tion should arise between Mr.
Oilman, the contractor, and
Mr. Martin, the superintend
ent, wouldn't Mr. Gilman, the
architect, decide in favor of
Gilman? It so appears to us.
And who id to say to the archi
tect that he does know the
character of his own draw. 36s;
even though tbey are incomplete?
A Most Righteous Verdict.
There is a general degree of
satisfaction expressed at the
verdict of the jury in the enra.
con. case of McLane against
Mitchell, tried last week, which
we consider a healthy indica
tion of public sentiment.
"While popular opinion readily
enough exhonorates the man
who takes the life of his wife's
seducer, it is too liable to
frown upon the one who seeks
the only legal redress he has
A suit for damages, and juries
are prone to letting the guilty
party off as lightly as possible,
It Is true that no amount of
jnoney can compensate a man
for the loss he sustains in a
natter of this kind; that the
bringing of such a suit shocks
.nil the feelings of our better
jiature, yet it is the only legal
lemedy a man has, and we are
glad to see a jury award a sum
lhat will make the transgress
ed .email, and have the public
approval of the verdict.
The law is one which lies at
the very bottom of society,
and protects that which is near
est and dearest to every man's
Jieart. It may be weak and
inadequate; we believe ic is;
but while it remains the only
legal means of redress, it
jshould have the moral support
at every good citizen. It is
the lack of this support and
ympathy, the "prejudging of
the injured man's motives,
which leads him to take the
law in his own hands, and seek
his enemy.
Mr. Samuel A. Nash.
We are gratified to learn
that Mr. S. A. Nash of Gallipo
lis, our recent candidate ior
Congress in this District, has
been selected by the people of
both parties to be the delegate
to the Constitutional Conven
tion, from Gallia county.
Mr. Nash will make a useful
member of the Convention
and we heartily congratulate
him upon the compliment to
his capability and integrity
which nomination and election
by both parties will so hand-
—Hocking
Sentinel.
Don't count your chickens
before they are hatched. Sam
my will never represent lial
lia county in the Constitution
al Convention. The people of
Gallia will have no trouble in
findingaman to represent them
of more ability and more stability.
The Prohibition Humbug
Again.
so-called
have nominated a State ticket
for the coming Fall campaign.
This Prohibition party is one
of the urrant humbugs of the
age. If its few adherents were
really interested in the cause
they profess they would seek
to buildup apublio sentiment
to enforce our already efficient
temperance laws, rather than
to divide and weaken public
sentiment. We respect the
cause of temperance, but we
have an utter . contempt lor
this party of wbinere who as
sume to tiemselves all of this
virtue. It is composed in a
small p-,rt of honest men, but
l'.o we so misled by a hobby
lhat they will not accept the
good which is practical and
then strive for perfection, but
must needs roach the goal at
one step or forever refuse to
move. For this class we have
pity for their misfortunes, but
for the much Jarger class who
make temperance a business,
anl prey off cf the smaller,
drawingtheir annual salariesfor
pretended work in the cause,
we have only contempt, which
feeling we believe is indulged
in by the public generally.
Your professional prohibition
lecturer at one to two hundred
dollars a month, so far as our
observation has extended, is a
poor, pusilanimous blather
skite, too lazy to work for
living, and too cowardly to
steal direct, and when his sal
ary as a 'lecturer" ceases, n
more likely to turn up as the
deeper of a doirgery, than as a
useful citizen.
The Ironton Kegister gives
this well-deserved dig at the
State Geological Corps:
"The Ohio Geological Surrey
has never amounted to any
thing, solar as this county i
concerned. A member of the
corps was down here, was flop
ped about a tow days, and then
went off and wrote a great
mass of information that, made
mysterious and dark what was
always certain and generally
known. We hope our citizens
will get up a survey of their
own, and let this legislative
humbug, the Ohio Geological
Survey, stay up at Columbus
and draw their salaries."
We clip the following in re
gard to the District Attorney
ship from tho Ilillsboro News:
"There is a prospect that the
District Attorneyship of Ohio
will soon become vacant
through the resignation of Mr.
Batenian. Among others urg
ed for the position is lion. Job
E. Stevenson, of whom the
Cincinnati Gazette says: "The
appointment of lion. Job E.
Stevenson to the position of
District Attorney, in place of
Mr. Bateman, who proposes to
retire, we understand, would
be directly in the line of hon
esty and efficiency, which are
in the line ot the President's
policy. Mr. Stevenson is a
good lawyer, and his reputa
tion, after four years' service
in Congress, is without the
shadow of a stain. No man
iis a better record.''
The Derao'CfjUic managers
have concluded h';afitis not
good policy to give the passes
a vote in selecting candidates
for office, and have altered the
determination of their Itst con
vention to select by a primary
election, and have called a
convention. The ring evident
ly think it is dangerous and
expensive to undertake to give
the masses a voice, and that
they can manage a conven
tion much cheaper and with
more certainty. And then,
you know, their interests are
much greater, and their knowl
edge more profound than that
of the people, and they should
have matters in their own
hands. ,
The Ironton Kegister was so
happy to think that it had not
said anything about the
"groundhog" that it had to
"kick the fat in the Gre" by
bragging on its silence.
AdTertlMmcnU Inserutl at fair Price
The Case of Mr. Colfax.
The New York Star, a strong
Democratic paper and a Litter
enemy of Vice l'residont Col
fax, contains the following,
which is certainly ot the high
est importance, tending, as it
does, to vindicate Mr. Colfax
completely:
'lu 6pite of the terrible
weight of evidence against
Mr. Colfax, we believe that
every fair-minded man would
be glad to see some honorable
way by which the Vice Presi
dent could extricate, himself
from this embarrassment. His
story about the $1,000 bill was
very fishy, but yesterday a re
porter was sent to interview
the Nesbitt family about the
affair. He found one of Mr.
Nejbitt's sons, acd casually re
marked that 'Mr. Nesbitt's
name was somewhat promi.
nently brought out in tne
newspapers' and received this
reply, which contains a sone
what important bit of lestimo
ny in favor of Mr. Colfax: 'Yo,
indeed; anl whit Mr. Collax
says is true, for mother says
that she remembers my father
telling her at the time that he
had sont that money on to
him.' On mentioning this to
ex Recorder James M Smith,
that excellent criminal lawyer
remarked that it was a most
important piece of evidence,
and added that once, whfti he
wa running for a public office,
Mr. Nesbitt, with whom he had
at that time a mere bowing ac
quamtance, had sent him a
check for 100 in the same
maimer. Mr. Nesbitt was a
warm personal admirer of Mr.
Colfax.
'It was expected to have
been able to add the testimo
ny of Mrs. Nesbitt, but it could
not bo procured in time for
this issue. The evidence of
the son, however, is undenia
bly important. If Mrs. Nes
bitt should cor firm his state
ment it will be seen that gross
injustice has been done to ono
part of Mr. Colfax's defense."
Ohio legislation is quite fre
quently adopted as tho model
form for imitation by other
States. Our temperanco law
has frequently been thus imi
tated. Now we find a commit
tee of the United States Sen.
ale taking our general incor
Doration law as a model after
Wi)u"h to frp.me a much needed
act for 'h incorporation of
railroads in the Territories.
The gross earnings of tho
Hocking Valley IJailroad last
year were some 350,000, mak
ing a dividend of twenty per
cent, to the stockholders. Wfl1
G. Deshler, of Columbus, has
3100,000, aud John L Gill, of
the same place 100,00J of this
stock. A good thing to have
in the house.
Tiie Zunesville Signal says:
'On an investment of 12,000,
one of our coal companies,
whose mines are located near
New Straitsville, Perry coun'y,
cleared within the two years
ol its active operations $30,000.
Hon. Wells A. IIutcuixs is
spoken of as the Democratic
candidate ior member of the
Constitutional Convention from
Scioto county.

Every merchant, manufacluref

Merchants, ivhen a poor man, tea
driven to advertising, as a last
resort, to gel his slock turned into
wor.ey so as to meet a note. Ar
guing from this that if it was
good fur him in adversity, he
coul l make it still belter in pros
perity, he became a persistent ad
vertiner, and thus gained his co
luss'tl fortune.
Siuiio innrclitintK s:iy it i noi worth

Why do people read advertisements?
To see who is enterprising and to lenrn
what is going on. To see if there is
nnythin!! new, or anything that they
want. To see if the season's stylea
have come in, and to find out who has
them. To know if nny one is selling
off at reduced rates, or to watch the
chnnce of an auction. For nmusement.
To satisfy curicsty. Because they
have read all the stories, marriages,
births, deaths, locals and accidents.
Because they want to. Because they
can't help it. Ohio State Journal
Trig power of print is well known,
but not well understood. A printed
sentence has a wonderful advantage
over one that is written or spoken.
This is ono of the many reasons which
gives an importance to advertising. But
advertisers, even those of experience,
do not comprehend as well as they
might the capacity to influence, to per
suade, to convince, which lies in print
ed matter. Spoken words require the
pruces of elocution and the force of
eloquence, yet even then fade away in
to nothingness if not caught in their
flight and printed. But there is some's
thing in the silent language, the quiet
assertion and the sense of permanence
about printed matter which give it a
marvelous force and influence. 13usi
ncss men should never permit them
aelves to loose sight of what may be
accomplished by a persevering use of
the printing presses. Learn to advert
Use, and then the "how, when and
where" ot it, and you will have a
knowledge worth bating.
